Can't Find Albums in iTunes

I am a relatively new iTunes user. I have a 96 GB collection of music on my hard drive. I loaded iTunes when I purchased my iPhone back in mid-September. Currently running version 7.5
I imported my entire collection of music into iTunes. The collection was primarily MP3s and some WMA file types. During the import there were a lot of files "converted" I think was the term used. Anyway I now have a million files in my original folder and a subset (duplicats) I guess in the file iTunes created.
My question is there are a lot of albums missing in iTunes. I have gone into File/Upload Folder and selected a couple of the folders (albums) to load into iTunes. It goes through the whole process but I can't find the songs or albums in iTunes. They are all MP3 files that I am trying to get iTunes to recognize. I noticed also if I try to upload the folders again nothing happens.
Where are my albums? Am I doing something wrong?

Aren't there any iTune guru's out there? I have a bunch of albums I can't get loaded into iTunes that I would love to listen to.

Perhaps try the "Error -609" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

Why is it that Itunes can't find album art for "North" by Elvis Costello and others

Why is it that from all the albums in my Library itunes can not find album art for:
"North" by Elvis Costello
"Viva la Vida" by Coldplay
and "Old Yellow Moon" by Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowel?

Earl,
For iTunes to find the art, it needs to match exactly on the Artist and Album Text. Minor issues like spacing or punctuation can prevent the match, as can a misspelling like "Crowel" for Crowell."
Look in the iTunes Store to get the exact text, fix the tags in the corresponding tracks, and then try again to "Get Album Artwork."
If that still fails, just grab the correct art off the web, and paste it into the Artwork tab.

Is your "home computer" the same as your laptop or are these two different machines?

Can't find devices on iTunes

Can't find devices on iTunes libraries, after turning on home sharing ?

Home Sharing only allows you to share your iTunes library from computer-to-computer or from computer-to-iOS devices not from iOS device-to-computer.

Hello levon10
Just delete the song and then go through the process of downloading the purchase again.

Hey rangermikegsm,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’re concerned because you don’t see your rentals in iTunes, but they appear to have downloaded. Take a look at the article below and check the Rentals tab in iTunes on your MacBook.
About renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Find movies you rented previously
Find your movie on the device you used to rent it.
On a Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
On an iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
Using Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation): Look in the top shelf of the main menu.
Ciao,

I am using Garageband and saving my tunes as iTunes files but can´t find them in iTunes on my computer after syncing. Where are they?

My answer in the older thread is still valid
Maybe the "iTunes Music" folder is hidden.
Please open Terminal and issue the following command
ls -ladO /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music
you should get a line similar to this
drwxrwxrwx 13 yourusername staff hidden 442 12 Mar 21:49 /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
Numbers, date and time may differ.
If you see hidden then the folder is hidden. To unhide "iTunes Music", in Terminal issue the following command
chflags nohidden /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music

How to download podcast can't find in the iTunes Store?

I understand that I can just use the instruction below to subscribe using the URL of those podcast that I can't find in the store, but once I sync it with my touch, I would like to use the "find more episode" options to get the new feeds. Of course it won't find it in iTunes. Anybody know a way to set up so that I don't have to connect the touch to the computer every time I try to get a new episode? Thanks!
Below is the instruction given to how to subscribe using URL in iTunes, but no in touch:
If while surfing the web, you ever come across a podcast that you can’t find in the iTunes Store, here’s an easy way to subscribe to it anyway. From the Advanced menu, choose “Subscribe to Podcast...” and enter the podcast feed URL. iTunes will subscribe you to the podcasts and begin downloading immediately.

Hhhmmm! That's an interesting question.
I have subscribed to Podcasts using *Advanced/Subscribe to Podcast* in the past, but since I can't remember which ones they were, I can't test this properly, but I understand what you mean. What happens when you do click *Get More Episodes,* presumably the Touch goes to the Store, but where exactly? Is it a page that has info about that Podcast or a general Podcasts page, or do you get a message?
I think what happens when you click *Get More Episodes* is that the Touch looks in the Store, not the Podcast feed and therefore doesn't find any new episodes because the Store doesn't list that Podcast. (The feed is where the episodes are located and downloaded from and it will not be an Apple server.) However, I could be wrong. iTunes might be looking, but doesn't find anything because there is nothing to find! Don't forget, every Podcast will have the *Get More Episodes* link on your Touch, but that doesn't mean there are any episodes to get.
So without a thorough test of this, I can't be certain whether the issue is that the Touch can't find the feed or "there are no new episodes to find".
Perhaps you need to send some feedback to Apple suggesting this as a new feature (enhancement request). Feedback for the Touch is http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html.
I'm not convinced that they will think this is necessary, because the idea is that the Podcasts are automatically downloaded into your iTunes Library because you have subscribed to the Podcast, so there would be no need to look for them directly from your Touch. Then, a periodic Sync of your Touch (which is a good idea anyway) would mean that it's not that likely that there would be any new episodes to get. But send feedback anyway, because it's not for me to decide.
In the short term, I think you're only option is to allow iTunes to find the new episodes and use the Sync feature to get them onto your Touch.

Ok don't make fun of my musical tastes (or lack thereof) but here's what it looks like in both the iPad app(for sharing music) and the videos app(for sharing tv shows, movies, etc)
You have to tap on the word library.
Here you just click on shared.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
